Event - The White Dragon

[The Warp Band feed opens with the Matriarch’s impassive face looking slightly haggard]

Union, I have a problem and am in need of assistance. About two hours ago refugees just started streaming into the Citadel territory. They say they’re from a city called “Glacier” that is being ripped apart by a giant white Dragon god. Sounds like it’s something up your alley. I’m sending them your way, we should probably go take care of that before it makes it over here. If you guys want to help out, I’ll lend you some of our birds. My Valkyries are already heading over, I’m sending a few flights out to the other cities as well to see if they want to join the party. Let me know what you decide.

Oh, the refugee leader is a fellow named Birgir. I gave him a Warp Band so he can probably tell you more about the situation.

(OOC: Questions to the Matriarch and Birgir can be asked here, and general reactions can also be posted here.)

[The tone of his voice is something she raises an eyebrow at.] Now that just sounds like an exaggeration. An area like that sounds like it would play host to more... of a unique variety of stores. If they suited your interests.

They've all got these weird lamps and crap hanging outside, with chimes! All of them! [That's also an exaggeration. He defends himself. It's definitely not in his interests, but it was a cool place either way. He won't go in the stores though, at least not the ones where it looks like he'll get possessed. Some of the other shops are safe and cool to look in.]

I know like, one part of it! [Because in the pokémon world, ghosts are real and so is all the spooky stuff that goes with it.] The rest of it freaks me out!

Is the area actually haunted? [She's from Sanctuary, "spooky" stuff isn't really going to phase her all that much. A truly spiritual area though, that's fascinating.] I know the ruins of an old city are here as well... is there a connection?

I don't know, but I'd really rather not find out. Telling scary stories about the place is cool and all, but it's a totally different thing if you're actually experiencing it. You know. That thing no one wants to ever go through, ever.

[Like Litwicks actually taking people off to the spirit realm- nooooo thanks.]

If you wanna find out about the ruins, you're just going to have to go yourself.

Well, the stories have their origins from somewhere... [But no, it would not actually be fun to experience a haunting, even for the knowledge of it.

But the ruins.] Oh, I intend to, when I have the chance.

You look way too excited about that.

[Not that he wouldn't get some excitement out of it too- there's this line between survival and leading an exciting life that he has, but...ghosts. Ghosts are real.]

Well, it is exciting! I'm just curious as to how different things are here... and then I still have to keep my priorities in order.

You're really set on that now, huh?

[Well, can't blame him for warning her.]

Guess you just can't beat a scientist's or a historian's curiosity. [He guesses she's one of the two, because he's a dumb teenager.]

I just enjoy studying. [And she acts far older than she actually is, which probably doesn't help.] Besides, having a chance to observe new places firsthand is still very new for me.

[Since. Sanctuary and all.]

I'm glad that you can. I think you're gunna like it in Union.

[He does. And to him, that accounts for something.]

Maybe I'll see you around there sometime. We've got a department store there.

Oh? Do you carry a large variety of items there?

Yeah! We've got just about everything! I mean, we did kinda start as a meat market and we grew from there, so you can find some stuff that's exclusively from Citadel in Junes. You should come check it out! There's even a little shop set up inside for like tea and coffee.

[It's no food court, but they're working on it.]

Junes, was it? [She'll just make a note of it, turning to a fresh sheet of paper to make the notation.] I'll have to keep an eye out for it. I haven't taken a proper walk through the Business District just yet.

You can't miss it! It's gotten pretty big. I'm there pretty much all the time, so if you need anything just look for me.

Sounds like a plan. I'm not much of a shopper, but we'll definitely need to stock up on things if this stay here ends up being longer.

Guess I'll see you around. It was nice meeting ya, Raine.

All right. Be careful out there.
